Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I love this cardigan: it’s so comfortable, practical, and flattering. In fact I love it so much I’ve already bought some more fabric to make another one!
I used the Burda “Karen Cardigan” pattern, and shortened it by a couple of inches or so.
Material Notes
100% Australian merino jersey from The Fabric Store, Surry Hills (Sydney)

Looks great! I plan on making this as a gift, since you shortened it may I ask how tall you are? The length is perfect on you.

Thanks :) I don’t think the pic does the cardigan justice … it’s one of the most comfortable things I’ve made!
